We're about to start a possible turbo build on Project XJR. Or should we go nitrous? Big bore? All of the above? It's that or straight out old school superbike with natural aspiration, braced swingarm and lots of suspension work!

offlineModeratorWhatever we decide, it definitely needs more horsepower. Too much is never enough. I like the idea of an A/Streeter with a modern engine and mechanicals.
I've got a score to settle with a mate and his GSX1400.

I'm biased, but I'm siding with your mate with the 1400!

I reckon big bore, old school superbike. Suspension work, era replica paint, sticky rubber & massive NA motor. The sound of a big bore is something to behold!Posted 1 year ago # -
